Protect Your Newborn’s Future with Comprehensive Screening
As a new parent in South Africa, you want nothing but the best for your baby. Our Comprehensive Newborn Screening Panel gives you peace of mind by detecting over 50 serious but treatable conditions before symptoms appear. Early detection means early intervention, potentially saving your child from lifelong health challenges.
What This Life-Saving Test Detects
Our advanced screening panel uses multiple testing methods including Fluoroimmunoassay, Capillary Electrophoresis, and Tandem Mass Spectrometry to identify:
- Metabolic Disorders (50+ conditions including Galactosemia, Biotinidase deficiency)
- Endocrine Conditions (Congenital Hypothyroidism, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
- Blood Disorders (G6PD deficiency, Hemoglobinopathies like Sickle Cell)
- Genetic Conditions (Cystic Fibrosis and other inherited disorders)
Many of these conditions show no immediate symptoms but can cause serious developmental issues if left untreated.
Every Newborn Deserves This Protection
This screening is recommended for all newborns because:
- Many disorders have no family history or visible signs at birth
- Early treatment can prevent intellectual disability and physical complications
- Some conditions become life-threatening within days if undetected
- Peace of mind is priceless for new parents across South Africa
Even if your pregnancy was healthy and your baby appears perfect, this screening provides essential health assurance.

Comprehensive newborn screening offers life-changing benefits:
- Prevent Developmental Delays: Early treatment can prevent intellectual disability
